Hello everyone,
Thanks for inviting,let me introduce myself first,I am 21 years old and I have eight years of marine fish keeping experience. I bought my first cleaner shrimp when I was a boy , it cost me almost all my pocket money and i had to help my family with housework in exchange for marine salt.
Now i have four saltwater aquariums ,two FOT and two reef tanks.Today i will show my smallest aquarium ,because i just cleaned the aquarium wall and took photos.
Tank size 50*25*30H ,totally 37L , it is very small.
Light : two Aqua Medic 30w LED lamps
Skimmer : Tunze DC skimmer the smallest one.
Wave pumpe and filter: also Tunze , i bought it with the skimmer together but i forget the name.
And i use a waterfall filter for filter media.
In this reef aquarium, I use only artificial filter media from Seachem . You can see there is no live rock.
Corals grow normally and some of them have already grown on the glass.
I use two simple peristaltic pumps to add Calcium and KH into the water , they were designed for freshwater aquarium to add Glutaraldehyde.
Water change once every two weeks and each time change 8 liters.
And something special is i add CO2 to this aquarium during the daytime, This may not be the right way，I know CO2 will reduce the ph so i just add a little . Corals look really enjoyable and they grow faster after I do that.The ph should be higher than 8.0, and I only add CO2 when the light is very strong.
My English is poor..... and thank you very much! I will introduce my corals next time.
